Xinyi Energy completes Hong Kong IPO to raise $465 millionTags£ºXinyi Energy  IPO  solar company 

Chinese solar company  Xinyi Energy  Holdings Limited has reportedly raised $465 million from its initial public offering. The business – a subsidiary of solar glass manufacturer Xinyi Solar Holdings Limited – operates a 954 MW portfolio of PV plants in China.

Bloomberg, citing confidential sources, reported the company sold 1.88 billion shares at HK$1.94 ($0.25) per share. Xinyi Solar had set a price range of HK$1.89-2.35 per share, for the spin-off Xinyi Energy. The company said it will confirm the official price on Monday.

According to the documentation accompanying the listing, the newly public company intends to spend the proceeds adding a further 540 MW of generation capacity to its portfolio. The parent company, Xinyi Solar, in December rowed back on plans for a global IPO  in favor of listing solely on the Hong Kong exchange due to global stock market volatility. Xinyi Energy iterated that its own listing operations would, however, remain unaffected by the parent company’s decision. The IPO of Xinyi Energy is, in fact, a global offering.
